$10 Million in Aid Reaches Dead Farmers in Error
A GAO audit finds the Agriculture Department paid 10.6 million to over 1,000 deceased individuals from 2008 to 2012 and another 22 million to 3,400 deceased policyholders, highlighting weak controls and ongoing waste in farm subsidies. The report notes prior efforts identified nearly 173,000 deceased recipients from 1999 to 2005 and urges use of the Death Master File to curb improper payments.
